We are pleased to announce the PMN13 release. In this release we introduce 24 new organism-specific metabolic pathway databases, which brings the total number of organism pathway databases to 100! New species include nine crops, two medicinal plants, four ornamental plants, two wild relatives of domesticated crops, two grasses, a succulent, a basal eudicot, two lower plants and a green alga:

We are pleased to announce PMN12.5 release. In this release we added locus IDs to genes in all PMN databases. The locus IDs were extracted from public genome releases that were used in constructing the PMN metabolic pathway databases. Protein sequence IDs from the genome releases are associated with proteins. The locus IDs, along with protein sequence IDs, should greatly facilitate data query and usage.

We are pleased to announce the PMN12 release. In this release we introduce 54 new species-specific metabolic pathway databases, which brings the total number of species-specific databases to 76. The 76 species cover the green plant lineage widely, including green algae, a moss, a club moss, a basal flowering plant, and higher plants of monocots and eudicots. They include major crops from grains to vegetables and fruits.

The Plant Metabolic Network (PMN) provides a broad network of plant metabolic pathway databases that contain curated information from the literature and computational analyses about the genes, enzymes, compounds, reactions, and pathways involved in primary and secondary metabolism in plants.
